After Claire left, Bell still slumped on the spot. Ever since the bullet brushed past his ear, it left a great shadow on his fragile heart, especially when his precious mount turned into a blood mist in front of him. The tragic situation made him unable to recover for a long time.
There must be a thought echoing in his mind, "If that shot hit me, I would die!"
This fear has been entangled in his heart like a gangrene, and he could not calm down for a long time.
But Claire didn't care about this. After confirming that the other party would not cause trouble for him in the future, he rode the wolf king out of the magic academy. He didn't care about what happened to Bell just now. What he cares about now is Isaac. thing.
The Magic Academy refused to let them go. The words he just told Isaac about getting to know the senior management of the Magic Academy were completely comforting. The only one who could get in touch with the Magic Academy when he first arrived was Mrs. Sophia.
If it weren't for this, Klar definitely wouldn't take the initiative to see the countess, it's not because the other party made him feel bad, but the conversation was too tiring, like negotiating.
Claire rode the Wolf Dynasty to the eastern part of the inner city. It was the wealthy area where the nobles lived, and Sophia lived there.
After informing the housekeeper, Claire was led into the gorgeous mansion by the servants. The residences here are not those castles in the personal domain, but more like large villas. Sophia's mansion is larger than the Viscount Mansion in Nafhu City, where Claire is located, and such an area is extremely rare in the wealthy area.
Followed all the way in, the green plants used to decorate are also some rare magic plants outside, the breath exuded has the effect of calming and refreshing, walking into the other party's mansion, it is not as magnificent as ordinary people imagine. There are only simple decorations, but Claire knows that those randomly placed objects are basically priceless antiques when they are taken outside.
"As expected of the August family, one of the three giants in the magic shop." Claire sighed inwardly.
In the living room, as soon as Claire sat down, an old man who looked like a butler brought a cup of tea in front of Claire and said respectfully, "Wait a minute, Madam said she will come when she is done."
The housekeeper was a little surprised. There are many nobles and nobles who want to visit Mrs. Sophia every day, but most of them are directly rejected outside the door. It is very rare for such a lady to come in person, and this person seems to be Still an underage.
However, as a housekeeper, if you know there are things you shouldn't ask, don't ask. After a few polite words with Claire, he backed away.
Claire drank a few sips of sweet tea bored. After waiting for nearly an hour, there was a sound from outside the door.
With the sound of "da da da" from the high heels stepping on the floor, Claire knew that Sophia had finally finished her work, so she politely stood up.
"Mrs. Sophia, Gui'an!" Claire nodded slightly towards her.
Today's Sophia's dress is different from what she saw that day. She is no longer wearing the black nude-back dress, but a Western classical Rococo style dress. She wears all kinds of gorgeous, dazzling and priceless clothes around her neck. Jewel, but even wearing so much, it's hard to hide her proud figure.
Sophia walked to the opposite side of Claire and said with a smile, "Lord Viscount, why did you think of coming to me?"
Claire laughed embarrassingly. You, an earl, called me the Viscount, you really gave me a face.
"I came here this time to ask for your help." Claire said straight to the point.
"Oh?" Sophia raised her eyebrows, dragged her chin to look at Claire, and said softly, "What's so hard to beat you, tell me and see."
"I fell in love with someone at the Magic Academy and wanted to take them away, but the Magic Academy wouldn't let them go. Is there any way?"
Sophia snorted again, and said with interest: "What kind of person can be attracted to you? It won't be some pretty little girl."
"A senior mage." Claire said lightly.
Hearing this, Sophia's body also straightened up, no longer in that joking tone.
"You want to compete with the Magic Academy for talent?"
"It's not a talent." Claire added in her heart: It should be an alternative genius.
"You know, this kind of thing is a little difficult."
Claire pursed her lips. It was difficult. Does that mean it can be done?
But for Isaac's sake, Claire didn't even want the principle of 30/70 split, and said directly, "I'm willing to split the business we talked about earlier."
Although Sophia seems to be very interested in him, he doesn't believe that he has any relationship with the other party. The relationship between him and Sophia is nothing more than a negotiation of the exchange of interests. The other party will naturally help him when the interests are given enough.
Sophia paused for a moment, and her eyes became crescent-shaped with a smile.
"How about five or five?"
He really knows how to sit on the ground and raise the price. Claire sighed inwardly, and put on a tangled look. In the end, she agreed with gritted teeth, pretending to be determined.
"Then divide it into fifty-fifty!"
The value of Isaac can be measured by gold coins, even if he only takes 40% of it, he can accept it. Anyway, it is a business without capital. The reason why he puts on a painful expression is that he does not want to be slaughtered by Sophia. .
But I didn't expect that just after he finished speaking, he laughed and covered the corner of his mouth, "I just said it casually, but I didn't expect you to agree. It seems that the senior mage that you liked is very special, I think so. I took him to my subordinates to work on it."
Claire's expression froze, but he didn't expect to be put together by the other party. That's why he didn't want to meet and talk with Sophia. He felt uncomfortable.
Sophia smiled again and said, "Just kidding with you, how could I rob the Viscount for talent."
Harm, asking for others, at the very beginning, she was at a disadvantage, which made this woman proud.
"Can you help me with this?"
"Yes, no problem." Sophia agreed without even asking who the person was, but this also reflected the influence of the August family in the Magic Academy.
"But I did you a favor last time, and you haven't repaid my favor. Are you going to do the same this time?" Sophia said in a resentful tone, as if Claire had failed her.
"Madam, feel free to say anything." Claire's expression didn't change.
"You're so smart, you know that I have something to help you with."
Sophia leaned her hand against the pendant on her neck, and the spatial fluctuations came, and a bunch of flowers emitting a faint blue light appeared in her hand.
Claire quickly recognized the bunch of flowers, "Nightmare flower?"
The name of this bunch of flowers is not that you will have nightmares after eating it, but because a mage woke up after having a nightmare when he was traveling and saw flowers growing near him emitting a faint blue light, so it was named after him. Nightmare Flower, and then continued.
"Yes, Nightmare Flower, do you know its effect?"
"Naturally, it is clear that the Nightmare Flower grows in the deepest part of the forest and is the main material for the potion of the power of the bull..."
"It seems very clear. This is what I want your help to do. Help me sell it."
"Sell it?" Claire was a little surprised. Generally, there is no shortage of market for the main ingredients of this medicine, but he quickly reacted and asked, "How much?"
If it were just a few thousand or ten thousand bundles, Claire didn't believe that the other party would trouble her.
The bull potion can greatly increase the user's strength for a short period of time. It is one of the potions that warrior adventurers must buy. The price on the market has never dropped by a hundred gold coins. It is a nightmare as its main raw material. The price of a single flower has reached more than ten gold coins. If the amount is small, the market can eat it. It is a question of earning more and earning less.
"Fifty tons."
"..." Has the bunch been used to indicate the quantity?
Claire almost wanted to stand up and say goodbye. According to the weight of a bunch of flowers, 50 grams, what a million bunch of flowers! You don't have that much wholesale!
Claire rubbed her face and said helplessly, "Where did you get so many nightmare flowers?"
Sophia had a rare look of sadness on her face, "It happened for a reason..."
